Why healthcare cybersecurity?
I know very little about technology and computer science. But I do realize that it’s not a matter of if but when will a hospital suffer a cybersecurity attack, and I fear the morbidity and mortality it could cause to patients. I am happy to offer my skills as a simulation writer and instructor so we can strengthen our healthcare systems and prepare ourselves as best as possible.
